About this event

Looking for connection, support, and real conversation with other new moms? This parent-led, peer-to-peer group offers a welcoming space for all feeding journeys—whether you’re breastfeeding, formula feeding, pumping, supplementing or still figuring out what works best for you.

This group is designed to build community first. Share experiences, ask questions and connect with others navigating the early months of motherhood. An international board-certified lactation consultant will be present as a resource if needed, and an infant scale is available for optional weighted feeds.

Each month also includes a simple footprint craft to enjoy with your baby—plus fresh cookies to make the time together even more enjoyable.

Come as you are. All moms and babies are welcome.

Please pre-register for this event.
